Popis: | Pharmacologic expansion of endogenous β cells is a promising therapeutic strategy for diabetes. To elucidate the molecular pathways that control β-cell growth we screened ∼2400 bioactive compounds for rat β-cell replication-modulating activity. Numerous hit compounds impaired or promoted rat β-cell replication, including CC-401, an advanced clinical candidate previously characterized as a c-Jun N-terminal kinase inhibitor. Surprisingly, CC-401 induced rodent (in vitro and in vivo) and human (in vitro) β-cell replication via dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation–regulated kinase (DYRK) 1A and 1B inhibition. In contrast to rat β cells, which were broadly growth responsive to compound treatment, human β-cell replication was only consistently induced by DYRK1A/B inhibitors. This effect was enhanced by simultaneous glycogen synthase kinase–3β (GSK-3β) or activin A receptor type II–like kinase/transforming growth factor-β (ALK5/TGF-β) inhibition. Prior work emphasized DYRK1A/B inhibition–dependent activation of nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) as the primary mechanism of human β-cell–replication induction. However, inhibition of NFAT activity had limited effect on CC-401–induced β-cell replication. Consequently, we investigated additional effects of CC-401–dependent DYRK1A/B inhibition. Indeed, CC-401 inhibited DYRK1A-dependent phosphorylation/stabilization of the β-cell–replication inhibitor p27(Kip1). Additionally, CC-401 increased expression of numerous replication-promoting genes normally suppressed by the dimerization partner, RB-like, E2F and multivulval class B (DREAM) complex, which depends upon DYRK1A/B activity for integrity, including MYBL2 and FOXM1. In summary, we present a compendium of compounds as a valuable resource for manipulating the signaling pathways that control β-cell replication and leverage a DYRK1A/B inhibitor (CC-401) to expand our understanding of the molecular pathways that control β-cell growth. |
